I STILL haven’t tried steel cut oats yet–I’m having a bit of trouble finding them but maybe I’m just not looking in the right places.

Right now I stick to rolled oats since it’s convenient and fast for me to nuke in a microwave in the morning [’cause I’m lazy]. I’ve heard that rolled oats expand more when cooked compared to steel cut oats though–do you find that’s the case?

Yeah you totally have to try the steel cut! It is definitely more ‘hearty’ feeling and tasting. You can cook it for a few minutes the night before and put it in the fridge – I just usually do the full cooking the night before and portion it out into pyrex to take to work, complete with all the fixin’s inside and then I microwave it.
